Snowflake enhances AI coding agent CoCo with Skills and Plugins

Snowflake has introduced CoCo, an AI coding agent designed for SQL authoring and data analysis, available across multiple interfaces including Snowsight, CLI, Desktop, and a VS Code Extension. The agent's functionality can be extended through Skills, which are small, single-file units of domain knowledge and procedures, and Plugins, which bundle multiple Skills, Hooks, and servers into a single package. Snowflake is also rolling out a feature for sharing these Skills and Plugins within an organization, with versioning managed natively. AI

IMPACT Enhances developer productivity by enabling customization and sharing of AI agent capabilities within Snowflake.
